The mothers of the dairy industry

The mothers of the dairy industry

Dairy cows give birth every year to a calf – their baby who is then taken from them.

Most of the female calves are raised to enter the cycle of birth and milking. The rest, which includes all of the male calves, are sold for slaughter. Some of them don’t even make it that far and just end up on a dead pile.

Can you imagine having each one of your children taken from you, year after year?

This year, we are launching the Mother’s Day Cow Ribbon campaign. We are making cow ribbons to be worn as a symbol of concern for these suffering and abused mothers.
